Lake Taupo and Tokaanu Thermal Pools are within 5 minutes’ drive from Creel Lodge. The Tongariro National Park’s ski fields and walking trails are 40 minutes’ drive away. Stayed for 2 nights on either side of hiking Tongariro North Circuit. The hotel is meticulously clean, grounds beautifully manicured, with even all the pots and cups aligned the same way. You walk right onto the past by the river. Rooms were quiet and wonderful. You're off the main road so traffic is minimal. Highly recommended!!!

Baycrest Thermal Lodge 4.5 stars

Taupo

Offering panoramic views of Lake Taupo, the luxurious self catering apartments at Baycrest Thermal Lodge feature free Wi-Fi and satellite TV. The shores of Lake Taupo are only 100 meters away.

Guests of the Baycrest Thermal Lodge Taupo can choose between ground floor apartments with an outdoor hot thermal plunge pool, or first floor apartments with a spa bath, balcony and Lake Taupo views. We had a fantastic relaxing stay, the bed was huge and comfortable, the rooms were huge and so clean. The outdoor private mini thermal baths really sealed the deal for us, the photos do not do the property or these baths justice, it is absolutely fabulous and we found it very romantic - but families or lone travellers would also love it. It was a very central location and we were able to conveniently park and charge our car outside our flat for free. The reception lady was so helpful, she helped us find a compatible car charger as ours didnt seem to fit their outdoor sockets, nothing was a problem for her and her upbeat pleasant attitude started our stay off on the right foot. I truely can't believe this place was as cheap as it was, it's an absolute steal! I would 100% go back and my fiance agrees with me completely. It was one of the highlights of our North New Zealand road trip in terms of lodging.

Modern & Central City - By KOSH BNB

Hamilton CBD, Hamilton

Conveniently set in the centre of Hamilton, Modern & Central City - By KOSH BNB is a recently renovated apartment, which provides free WiFi, a garden and free private parking for guests who drive. This apartment features air-conditioned accommodation with a patio. The property is soundproof and is located less than 1 km from Waikato Stadium. The unit was just perfect! It was beautifully set-up, extremely clean, and very well-equipped! It seems to be almost brand new with lovely furnishings and had everything we needed. Wished we could have stayed longer! I had a little trouble finding the complex—my fault…we were very tired and new to the area—and I hadn’t had a chance to read all the detailed emails explaining the check-in process. We called the owner (at 9pm!) he walked me through the steps until I was safely in the unit. I thought that was extremely kind of him and we were very appreciative of his patience and help. All in all, it couldn’t have been better!
